Default Buying new speakers

Alright, I'm finally replacing my crap stock speakers and it's been so long since I've bought speakers, I don't know the best bang for the buck anymore. While I want to say quality before cost, my pocket says cost before quality.What are some good middle-ground speakers that won't kill my pocketbook?

I've looked at Alpine'sin the past and liked those. As far as sound quality, I like a good mix of bass & treble. Anything will have more bass than my factory's.

I just put some Alpine's in mine and they sound great. I've got Alpine's in the back, and RF's in the front. Works for me.

I have Sony Xplode 3-way speakers in my truck. But if you are looking for bass you might wanna look at some Mid-Bass Component set.

I used to run the JL's but I like focal or maybe even rainbow or diamond or mb quart. My cousin has a low end set of kicker components they are pretty "lively". Whats your price range? Get a sub is you want bass...

My budget is about $200 to $275 max for four speakers probably. I know that whatever I end up getting I'm gonna be playing them loud so they're gonna have to last.
